I have noticed this in the middle of the night the last few nights. I get up to go to the bathroom, then take a drink of water, and when I lay down the baby gets the hiccups? Do you think it's something I should worry about? Anyone else experiencing this? My LO seems to get the hiccups pretty frequently. Just a question I had to ask at 2:00 am. Thanks!

It is perfectly normal for bubs to get the hiccups, in fact I have read that some studies show that hiccups actually help to mature the babies lungs.

my baby gets hiccups at least 3 times a day, i never realised what they were until someone mentioned hiccups and that is definately the movement, 100% normal and nothing to worry about xx

mine also gets them about once a day i heard its suppose to be good xxx

My LO has them in the middle of the night as well. It makes going back to sleep difficult. No matter how many times I beg the baby to wait until morning to start hiccuping, it refuses to do so.

Mine gets hiccups all the time. It's perfectly normal nothing to worry about :-)

though i'm not quite sure what causes them, my midwife didn't say
